Greetings, I'm interested in the latest clinical evidence regarding biologic augmentation (e.g., PRP, bone marrow aspirate concentrate, allografts) for rotator cuff repair in Yemeni patients. Are there compelling studies or personal experiences that suggest a significant improvement in healing rates or functional outcomes compared to standard repair? What are the practical considerations for implementing these techniques in our orthopedic practice in Yemen? Thank you for your input.

I agree, CT is essential for that non-union. Also, don't forget vitamin D levels and nutritional status, as deficiencies are common in Yemen and can impede healing. Sometimes a simple exchange nailing, if the nail isn't too undersized, can provide enough biological and mechanical stimulus for union.

Tele-rehabilitation for ACL patients has been a game-changer for us, especially in remote areas of Yemen. Patient compliance has actually improved because it removes transportation barriers. It requires a good internet connection and patient commitment, but the benefits outweigh the challenges.
